In example one, 就住你has to be considered together in translation, hence "accommodate you" or "accommodate your skill level".
In example two, 點解你行路就住就住?, the same word 'accommodate' can also used in the translation. - Why are you walking as if you are accommodating something?

Why are you holding back in your walking pace? 點解你留住力行
But行路就住就住means not just the pace. It probably refers more to the walking gait.

"就" 的英文?
I don't think 就住 means exactly留力.
'Accommodate' is the verb for 遷就/就as shown in the two examples.
It can also be the translation in other situations when 就 is used as a verb.
I don't think 就住 means exactly留力.

Why are you staggering along?

To MingY:
So you don't know the answer after all ? Lot's of immigrants live in the US, but not everyone can speak good English, let alone write. If I were you, I would keep the embarassment to myself.

im not gonna say anything bad to those two previous answers, but theres no direct translation for it, u cant say it. its kinda like a chinese idiom. and DO NOT use what those two answers told u, cuz nobody talk like that, its plain weird. i live in US, TRUST ME if u dont wanna embarrass urself.

001的回答無問題，但我試想找一個比較可以「萬用」的講法是可行。

廣東話「就住」中文可以是「小心」「留心」「撫就」「體諒」「保守」等等。

以你的兩個例子，加上我另加一些例子，我想以用hold back來表達這各種情況都90%ok.

打網球佢會就住你嚟打
He holds back when playing tennis with her...becuase she is a beginner.
留力/控制住不用盡全力

點解你行路就住就住?
Why are you holding back in your walking pace?
減慢步伐/走得不太順暢

你做每件事都就住就住，怎會成功？
How will you succeed if you hold back in everything you do?
保守/不放膽/留有餘地

他有點學習障礙，請你就住他的程度來補習。
He has some learning difficulties, you may have to hold back to suit his learning in tutoring.
